THE City Government of Tagbilaran has successfully completed two major road concreting projects, further advancing its infrastructure development agenda and improving transportation access for residents across the city.
Mayor Jane Yap announced the completion of Phase 1 of the Cabawan Road Concreting Project, just in time for the opening of the new school year.
The project forms part of the city’s continuing efforts to enhance road networks and strengthen connectivity.
According to Mayor Yap, the newly concreted road now provides a smoother and more convenient route for students, commuters, and residents traveling to and from Dr. Cecilio Putong National High School–Cabawan and the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology facility.
The road also serves as an important link connecting Tagbilaran City to the neighboring municipalities of Cortes and Corella.
“This project will greatly benefit our students, workers, and residents who rely on this route every day.
Improved roads translate to safer travel, better accessibility, and more opportunities for growth and development,” Mayor Yap said.
Meanwhile, residents of Barangay Taloto are also benefiting from the completion of the road concreting project along O. Zamora Street, which has significantly improved road conditions in the area.
The project is expected to provide safer and more comfortable daily travel for motorists, students, and residents, particularly during the rainy season when road conditions are often more challenging.
Mayor Yap said both projects are part of the city’s broader Tagbilaran Urban Development Plan, which focuses on strengthening transportation infrastructure, improving connectivity, and supporting sustainable urban growth.
She emphasized that the projects were fully funded by the City Government of Tagbilaran, highlighting the city’s commitment to infrastructure development while maintaining its distinction as a zero-loan city since 2013.
“These are concrete projects with tangible results—projects that our people can see, experience, and benefit from every day,” Mayor Yap said.
“We continue to prove that responsible fiscal management and meaningful development can go hand in hand,” she added.
Infrastructure development remains as one of the administration’s key priorities as it works to improve public services, enhance mobility, and create a more accessible and progressive Tagbilaran for all.
